Taking the helm for the second number in Clone’s October takeover,
here goes the mastermind himself, Serge with an ever epic selection of
hard-nosed bangers and boundary-pushing ordnance. Having built an
absolute monument to electronic music in the broadest, most widely
eclectic sense of the term, Serge remains a driving force without
equivalent both within and well beyond the borders of Netherlands. His
much anticipated mix for RYC attests to the evergreen quality of his
selections and precision of his mixing, diving deep into his own label’s
catalogue and like-minded repertoires to once again deliver the most
compelling club-destroying transmission you could think of. Expect
torrents of acid-drenched psychedelia, rough-hewn analogue bursts,
cutting-edge slices and laser-precise groovers on a post-industrial tip.
BEEG.

Reclaim Your City 664 | Afra
Brace yourselves for a breakneck ride this month as our longtime
friends and distributor Clone hijack RYC frequencies with a massive
takeover for the whole month of October. Breaking this four-part
installment in, Amsterdam’s Afra cuts in with two-hours of old-school
Detroit electro vibrations, hi-velocity breaks and future-facing floor
narratives beckoning us onto a whole distinct dimension entirely. All in
finessed vortical dynamics and rapid-fire bass deluge, the Dutch DJ
pulls out an absolute charge of a chiseled and finely-curated mix,
locked-and-loaded on having ravers lose their mind to this effervescing
fusion of frantic sci-fi-like atmosphere and proper nuclear propulsion.
Buckle your belt.

Reclaim Your City 663 | Erik Jabari
Not yet a big name on today’s techno map, up-and-comer Erik Jabari is
a producer and DJ you shall hear a lot more from in the coming years.
Championing a sound both rugged to the core and honed to razor-sharp
effect, the young Berlin-based artist is on a rising trajectory his
recent 6-hour B2B set with living legend DJ Pete came to confirm in the
most splendid way. Building upon an unmatched maturity behind the decks
associated with a sixth sense for faultless track selections, Erik has
been dishing out proper memorable vinyl-only sets with unfaltering flair
and focus throughout the past few months, and his inaugural mix for RYC
shall cement his position as a DJ and producer to keep a close eye on.
Locked in, ready for the sweep.

Reclaim Your City 662 | Mareena
Taking over the decks this week with two hours of unflinching groove
engineering, Tresor resident DJ and Unrush boss Mareena pulls out the
big guns. All in layered atmospheric finesse, streamlined rhythmic
architecture and nimble transitions, Mareena's mix vouches for her
impeccable mixing skillset and pristine curation. Blending hi-impact,
big room-focussed wares and clever detours into further
experimental-leaning territories, the German artist captures a
compelling snapshot of her current musical headspace, combining the
finest of hi-tech dubs with vanguard electronics and stripped-down floor
destroyers bound to wreak havoc all the way from the basement to the
rooftop. Seismic drop, beware.

Reclaim Your City 661 | Neel
Half of boundary-pushing production outfit Voices From The Lake and
co-founder of Spazio Disponibile, Neel is an Italian producer with a
keen ear for complex, enveloping sonics; his ample, elegant pieces of
music sitting right at the junction of beatless abstraction and
intricate webs of electronic pulsations. Boasting his works’ most
dynamic side, Neel’s debut transmission on RYC ushers us into a
smouldering pit of molten steel and glassy membranes. Playing with
echoes and latency as he builds his own multi-sensory experience out of
eclectic fragments, Neel transports us to a zone where movement and
inertia rule in concerted harmony, and your suddenly weightless body
feels eventually free from today’s iteratively chaotic burden.
Uplifting.
